Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel library for the generation of muteins and to novel muteins derived from human lipocalin 2 (Lcn2, hNGAL) and related proteins that bind a given target with detectable affinity. The invention also relates to corresponding nucleic acid molecules encoding such a mutein and to a method for their generation. The invention further relates to a method for producing such a mutein. For example, such muteins may serve to bind and deplete pathological forms of natural biomolecules such as the amyloid beta peptide in Alzheimer's disease or may target the fibronectin extra-domain B, which is associated with tumor neovasculature.

Abstract: The present invention relates to fusion molecules that have binding specificity for pyoverdine type I, II and III and pyochelin and can be used in various applications, including diagnostic and/or therapeutic applications, for example, to inhibit or reduce growth of P. aeruginosa and/or to prevent or treat P. aeruginosa biofilm infection as well as diseases or disorders associated with P. aeruginosa biofilm infection. The present invention also concerns methods of producing the fusion molecules described herein as well as compositions and kits comprising such fusion molecules. The present invention further relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding the fusion molecules described herein.
